Hou Yi's alarm went off at 6:30am, as both of them had decided that they wanted to be up to send everyone off on their trip to Hong Kong for their get away . They knew that they could not delay themselves in the shower, so they quickly showered and changed before heading to the breakfast room .
On arrival they saw a number of bleary eyed children, who were grumbling about having to get up early . Anna, knew them and said firmly "Come here everyone, now . Do not make me repeat myself . " Anna, turned herself in her chair, and all the children came to Her .
"Thank you . Now I know you all hate getting up late on holidays . Uncle Yi and I have organised something special . You have a couple of days away in Hong Kong with Uncle Yi's parents, his Aunt and Grandparents . All of them want to go with you and have some fun . Today, there are a couple of tourist guides, one who will take those who want to go shopping, shopping, and the other that will take people to see some various tourist sites . "
"Tomorrow you will spend the day at Ocean Park, which when I looked on-line about it has a lot of thrill rides, and various animal displays, so that should keep everyone happy . You are staying at a hotel right next door . You then move to another hotel for Sunday, which is . . .
"Disneyland" squealed Pippa and Hannah .
"Absolutely . You are staying at a hotel there Sat.u.r.day night . And a special treat tonight you are having dinner at a restaurant that allows you to look at Hong Kong at night . So for Hannah and Pippa that means before you come back with your dance school you will know the best rides . Now promise Uncle Yi and me, no arguing . "
With that there was a nod of heads from the excited children, who quickly ate their breakfasts before running back to their rooms to finish getting ready .
Rosemary and Rebecca looked at Anna "Aunty Anna strikes again . " Anna simply smirked .
Rebecca continued "And I pity when you two have a child, they will be so manipulated bu their mother to do what she wants . "
Hou Yi, Anna and Rosemary all looked at each other with that comment, biting their tongues not to say anything .
Hou Yi looked at his watch and noticed that it was 7:20am . "I guess that you will have to get moving, as the flight is due to leave at 9am . We will see you when you get back"
When they had seen everyone off Hou Yi turned to Anna, and asked "What do you want to do? Stay here on your own, or come into the office? As everyone else is away, I need you at the board meeting at 3pm as you are a board member . You can sty here, come and sit in my office or go and work in your office, your choice?"
"I'll come in . I am not sure what I will do . I can make my mind up when I get there . "
"OK, let me get you in the car, and what do you need from inside?"
"Just my handbag . Grab my laptop as well . I know I will not need it, but I want it with me . "
Hou Yi, rather than sending one of the staff into their room went himself and collected the items along with his briefcase, before returning back to the car for the drive in . On the drive he busied himself with reading various papers, and occasionally Anna grabbed one of them to read herself .
As they arrived Hou Yi put the papers back in his brief case, and handed his briefcase, Anna's handbag and laptop case to one of the bodyguards . He helped her out of the car and onto her crutches . "Where did you want to go?'
"What is on the board meeting agenda?"
"Approval of a few contracts, and a complaint from the head of legal services . "
"OK that tells me where I need to be . Three supervisors who are connected with him were winging to Amanda and I on Wednesday . I think I better go back there, at least for the morning . I'll come up, say about 1pm, and stay then, if that is OK . "
"Not a problem . "
As they entered the building, staff members who saw Anna, started to clap and call out "Welcome Back Madam Hou", but respectfully they gave her plenty of room . Hou Yi accompanied Anna to the floor where her office was located, and went with her in, gave her a kiss goodbye, and said "Message or call me if you need anything . See you at 1pm . "
